Correlation and prediction of arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide from venous umbilical blood gases

CONCLUSIONS: pCO < sub > 2(UVBG) < /sub > correlates with and can predict pCO < sub > 2(UABG) < /sub > . Therefore, pCO < sub > 2(UVBG) < /sub > can be applied to pCO < sub > 2(UABG) < /sub > in neonates for whom UAC insertion is unsuccessful or to avoid an arterial puncture.PMID:35286034 | DOI:10.24953/turkjped.2021.619
